Midkine: A Novel Biomarker to Predict Malignancy in Patients with Nodular Thyroid Disease

Midkine: A Novel Biomarker to Predict Malignancy in Patients with Nodular Thyroid Disease

Background. Midkine (MK), a new heparin-binding growth factor, plays important roles in a variety of biological phenomena such as carcinogenesis, inflammation, and angiogenesis. In this study, we aimed to evaluate serum midkine (SMK) and nodular midkine (NMK) levels in patients with thyroid nodules...
